I can't wait to see the new project that you don't plan on finishing.

Doug is awesome! I look forward to his video builds daily. You have to have a personality to watch Doug’s channel. It’s not for “everyone”. Keep doing what your doing Doug. Some of us see and recognize the work you do. You have a family to provide for, stay true to yourself as your videos are a direct reflection of who you are. Apologize to no one. Keep going sir!

It's a good day when we get an upload from our boy Doug-e-Fresh

Love the episode! Reminds me of the older Soundmans! The explosions are top notch comedy! Keep them coming!

doug you brighten my day first your'e making your own security screws and then you make your own arc welder thank you for making my day better

Looks good buddy. The mule has always been one of my favorite builds on KZfaq.

The only reason I laugh at your struggles with mounting the amp etc is that I go through the same thing every time I try to do something. I ask the same question, why am I having trouble? Keep it up Doug. To help I calm myself with a Bourbon Dougie, 2 shots of Bourbon (Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, Blanton's) and Diet Ginger Ale over ice.

Dougs grandson might be old enough to drive by the time the Mule is done

I actually used Herculiner to cover the exterior of a FG box I made a few years ago. It was just a small thing with a shallow RF 10" sub in it, but you put that on a piece of carpet and the coating kept it from going anywhere lol. Could kick the damn thing and it would pull the carpet with it. Never faded, always had like a rubbery feel to it and it seemed to dampen the box a little. Between the Herc outside and the flock inside, it was a tight sounding enclosure, even with the plexi window on the front.

The most classic Soundman Vid that I have seen a while! Still got it Doug.

Hey Doug thanks for showing that new NVX piece! That DSP looks so simple functionality awesome 👍 Watching your Mule rebuild cool, nothing against Mac but time for some new and smaller chassis tryouts and NVX has great products you already know...😂 I know! I use a brand Recoil similar to NVX in many applications, but not equal. Anyways what about adding a second NVX matching 5- channel on that backboard, then split the power from each amp down the vehicle.. so Amp A runs left side and Amp B runs right side, each pair of channels bridged...your Hybrids would love the Xtra power in those sick kick panel glass pods as you are the "fiberglass master" no doubt, just thinking 2 mirror amps would look killer is all! Great vid ..stay cool ..keep building man ;) I'm old school-

You've been fixing the Mule so long, I had a whole ass kid. He's 6, and you're still not done. I'm thinking when he graduates in 2035, I'll buy it for his graduation present. Might be done. Probably not.

Need epoxy primer over the bare metal & body filler before you bed line the stuff. Typing this before I know if you did it!

Best channel on KZfaq!

One of my favorite systems from around 10 years ago was the NVX X Series 5.25 components with the similiar model of SB Acoustics 8" midbass. It was a sweet 3 way setup ran from 2 of the NVX JAD800.4 amps. Subwoofer was an Image Dynamics IDMAX 12 and eventually the NVX X series 10" for a front sub. NVX has made some sick stuff!!

I want the mule so bad! Such a dope ride and my ninja Doug built it! I care what you did Doug 😏

The computer screen was blowin me up during the bedliner music cut.... Niieecce!!!

I hope he never end The Mule... I love this videos...

I can't believe I've been watching your channel for nearly 10 years. Thanks for all your content Doug.

that intro never gets old love it Mr man!

I can't wait to see Doug give up halfway through this build too. Maybe he will try and hock it at the local flea market. Keep up the great work Doug. I can't believe the Van is gone.

2:57 I laughed my ass off at this part lol..... I can't count how many times I've been in some uncomfortable position trying to make something fit while inventing new cuss words

Put the drill in reverse when mixing. Works so much better.

That DSP looks like they took a miniDSP, put a new case on it, and jacked up the price

You are just a funny ass guy. I binge on your videos everyday!

Would you please do a review of the DSP. And let us know how it works.

This is my new favorite channel. I can relate. Died @ 21:27 LMFAO!

Looks good Doug. About 20ish years ago I was building a frame off 1992 S-10 Mini. I had the bed and cab sandblasted and sealed. I used the Duplicolor bed liner system as an undercoating and on the floor of the cab which used the similar bulk Gallon and spray cans. Your result was exactly like mine. I ended up using 3 coats but the texture and finish looked exactly to you yours does.

Nice and yeah I went to a stereo show. It was amazing. Never knew 160db was so loud 😄✔️it out.

Hey Doug, look at the top of the drill. There's a fast and slow switch marked 1 and 2.

Bedliner, good way to cover up bodywork imperfections. Looks good, looks real good.

It does look good, your project is coming along well!!

Finally some carstereo thing in this carstereoshow😅👍

I love this channel. It's got that mid 2000s vibe. I'm just getting into car audio and my two observations: JL and AudioControl are the best. Period. And anything cheaper than NVX is gonna be a fire starter. I'm still in my decision making phase of if I want a DSP, 5 channel, or mono block, fancy line out, or just ram a speaker level signal to a JL amp and let it deal with it.

That Herculiner, thats what i used for my sub box. Best of the best. Its got a texture now thatll rip flesh from the bones. 2 coats and wow!! 4 x 12 inch BDC2s in an 11 cb ft slot ported box. 250lbs empty.

That’s a solid Turd, Mark is shook up.

Doug -- Listen to me. Are you hearing me, Doug? This is possibly your best video -- like ever. It doesn't matter what you did to Rafa's Mom, Doug. Keep up the good work, brother. At least your boots were pretty for the first few minutes. And never -- I repeat NEVER...put Herculiner on your taint.

You need Dean and Fernando for 5-Star car audio to fix that nightmare😢

You said wait till we see Your next system, we haven't seen the first system 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂So far the van never bumped !!!!

Herculiner is really good stuff.. I've used it to seal up my floor underneath the vehicle, sealed up my new radiator support and my 6th order bandpass

Doug keep up the good work making awesome KZfaq videos

Awesome Video Doug

Good job, Douglas!

I have this NVX dsp paired to the NVX 6 channel loc connected to 5 channel soundstream reserve amp and sub and it sounds absolutely amazing

Always majorly saving my life motivational to me.... Salute , blessings to everyone grind and motivations.....

Hope you're staying coll out there Doug! It's hot here in LA, and I know it's even hotter in Santa Clarita. 🥵

cant wait for the motor to go in!! hopefully it wont take 2 weeks like this damn paintjob... but all good things are worth waiting for!!!

I got some V series in my mini. Looking forward to running an amp onto them and seeing what they can really do.

Poor Doug's been getn bullied by Rodger for years now! He's the only reason I work late! Gotta get that OT baby!

Nice my dad has a 15" NVX 1500 rms watt subwoofer.

@6:33 We can all be thankful no fumes were ignited! 💣

I went away for 5 years, came back, still fucking around with the mule😂

I'm sponsored by Raptorliner and you can most definitely roll it own. Also, since it's a Y2K product, you can add a leveler to the base and hardener to help out. Yes it gets brush strokes out but if you are using a 3-4in roller, it'll get rid of the over lapping lines of extra material. The Blue Foam-Pro line of brushes are amazing! They are super durable and leave the best finish between a smooth surface and a rough surface. Just a great medium. If washed out with warm water, they will last for quite a while. Here's a link to the 4-in rollers. Their full size rollers are just as great. Doug, if you would like, I can get you a considerable discount on some Raptorliner to "reevaluate".... LOL. By the way, I love seeing you do work on the Mule! It's one of the coolest unique rides that I know of and very much deserves more exposure in my opinion. Just let me know if you need anything I'll even have some extra rollers and brushes.

Doug your the man.. Keep that shit going. One video at a time. Take your time. and burn it all. lmao.

Good Old-School video!

Love the little Doogie howsier theme song... Now go type in your journal with Vinny

Doug needs to watch more Dean and Fernando 🤣 Clean that up, son! 😂 Great vid. I missed the nuke

I understand the "sq mindset" for next project...pays better. However, we all got the initial itch with the bass. Once that van is finished, it's a rolling billboard. Take your next SQ project at the same meet as van, and destroy your market. Still have much hope for bass van. J.

A cheaper turd brings more joy then a high car payment!!! Yes!!!

I haven’t seen wiring that messy outside of a trailer park build. On top of that you used a so so product, applied over an improperly prepared surface. It’ll be fine..only has to shine till the new owner passes the curb right doug 😂

I really want that NVX XDSP66BT DSP. I just can't afford one right now, hopefully soon. My whole system is waiting.

I came up an awesome excuse to tell my wife why we NEED to buy the mule. It’s on a sticky note somewhere…

@ 12:32 good masking job!

I used that Herculiner on my sub box and it worked well.

Man tell the wife you fugged up when you killed the bass van series.. and your gonna finish it if she likes it or not.. mentioning this for a friend!

"A New Hope" , fucking genius :D

He’s back in the mule. Hope he doesn’t miswire the amp, cause a big spark and ignite the goddamn fumes! 🔥

When you have adhd and start new projects before you Finnish the current ones you're working on haha get your shit together Doug ❤️

Nice bro 👌

I wish they had a phone app to control the dsp. Not a deal breaker but still.

Raptorliner from Slamazon does a good job as a roll on. its swell.

I like Zen Doug 🧘🏻 Keep the Confucius coming 📿🙏

Great video Doug was wondering when you were going to finish the mule😮

It'll be a miracle if you even finish the mule.

Keep it up like Rafa’s mom

Da Fu!! I haven’t been getting notifications!

hipass deez nuts on yo forhead, Doug. lol Sorry man. just sounded funny. Good content brother. been watching for years!

Hell yeah..

Lmao straight up hilarious I can relate to your perception on life.

I’ll put some stained wood in the parts where the bed liner ain’t. Keep the vids coming Doug

Doug's pain is our viewing pleasure.

CAF has some great videos on clean wiring

next build should be the Chevy. killer sound system with a slick ipad install and airbags😎

Hey you are using a accuair vu4! I've built those!😊

Doug’s next build is a Tahoe with the F150 box with the ports into the driver and passenger seat backs and the mule box in the way back.

🤣 awesome intro

😮looks fucking 🔥 amazing

Time to sell it. He is half way done. No more bullshit!

Did you get a headlight for the mule from when you broke it

It always matters what you did Doug

do you plan on finishing the interior as well? i know at one point you were trying to fabricate a console or something if memory serves.

kool

I don’t know if I should feel 🧐 or 😭 for being old enough to recognize the Doogie Howser theme song!

Thanks SloJoe84 - Now you've ruined the surprise. I hope you're happy now.

Tonight’s Powerball is worth $900 million, and tomorrow night $640 million is on the line in the next Mega Millions drawing. It's people meat!

Frequancy overlap on dsp? (Deal with standing/shorter waves).

I bought the raptor bed liner for my truck but haven’t use it yet, this looks good and easy to apply. Might have to give it a try. Would you think that one can be enough for a 5.7 bed, Doug?

Does this DSP have individual eq per channel?

Doug would love to seena class a/b Down4Sound build.

Ur the Confucius of youtube car audio...let's just call you sensei Doug
